Love this ranking!! One of my favorite franchises!
Aliens will always be my favorite!!
Thanks! Can't wait to see your placements
Although are rankings are radically different, this was a very cool video. I look forward to checking out more of your stuff.
Thanks!
I have come to appreciate Alien 3 more as time passes. Also, I prefer the alternate version.
I don't hate it but it's not high on my list. 3 stars for me
Putting Prometheus behind Covenant is the hottest take I have ever seen
Right on
Nice video I’ve only seen AVP 1 and 2 and the first one is okay but the second is AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!! In my opinion. Can’t wait to see your 32 ranking. Will it be a regular video or a live one?
Regular for my channel and live on SPC Unleashed both on August 31st
Cool can’t wait to see it @@themovieranker
1 Alien
2 Aliens
3 Prometheus
4 Alien 3
5 Covenant
6 Resurrection
7 AVP
8 Requiem
Completely agree with your ranking!
What pissed me off the most about this movie was doing away with the most likable character's such as Newt, after everything that she went through and her seeing her parents and brother getting killed was enough for me and got my blood boiling watching her autopsy. And doing away with badass Hicks!!!! Like why the frig have him knocked off like he didn't do anything except saves what's remaining of his team and making damn sure that Newt and Ripley survive. And the loss of Bishop just didn't make any sense what's so freaking ever !!! After all the crazy stuff going on all around them the whole time Hicks keeping his head and doing what ever they had to do to survive, just by killing them off was a huge injustice to the franchise and ultimately caused the series to just spine out of friggin control !!!!
Yes what Alien 3 did with Aliens characters was awful
It’s been a really long time since I have seen all aliens movies maybe it’s foggy memory but I remember Alien Vs Predator being more interesting I would have to rewatch it but nothing of course beats the original Aliens movie it’s stands the test of time and just incredible story wise great list
I have only seen AvP,AvP 2,alien,and aliens but aliens is my second favorite movie of all time I am going to watch the rest soon but idk when
Aliens is awesome
My favorite line from Alien goes something like "If we ain't outta here in 10 minutes, we won't need a rocket to fly through space" 😂
Interesting ranking. You've been generous towards Prom & ACov and harsh to A3 but you made good points. I felt like there should've been a film in between Prom & ACov imo. I agree on the stupid decisions & cgi aliens, shame as they're beautiful films.
Curious you put AVP so high as well. Agreed it should've been serious instead of playing like a video game. PG13 should never be in any Alien or Predator film.
Despite the problems with A3 I still have time for it, despite it shitting on the ending of Aliens. I saw A3 at the cinema on my own, and loved the cinematography despite the clunky cgi & effects. I thought the dog alien and its galloping was amazing concept. They could've gone with this storyline and kept Hicks and Newt, maybe somehow sacrificing them along the way, justifying why Ripley would take her own life having an alien queen in her. I know A3 is a mess though.
I agree on all points with Alien and Aliens. I was 6 when Alien came out (too young) but a teenager when Aliens came out, esp on VHS. Great work btw
My ranking :
1 - Aliens (I'm that guy)
2 - Alien
3 - Alien3
4 - Alien Res
5 - AvP
6 -Prom (pretty films but pretty stupid)
7 -ACov (both retcon too much)
8 - AVP R (we all agree)
Can't argue with that ranking. I know I'm in the minority for enjoying AvP as much as I do.
1. Alien
2. Aliens
3. AVP
4. Prometheus
5. Alien: Covenant
6. Alien: Resurrection
7. Alien 3
8. AVP: Requiem
I used to Prefer Aliens but after a recent rewatch I’ve changed my mind because Alien feels more of a Horror movie, Aliens takes that away and focuses more on action and I prefer my Alien more to be horror and Prometheus and Covenant are almost a tie could go back and forward of which one I prefer out of those.
Same here, I like my Alien films to be more horror based. Great ranking
Nice job.
Is Charlize Theron's death the vital clue that she is indeed a human?
Haha that might be it 😂
I liked both AVP.
I've never ranked these, so this is my first, knee jerk ranking.
8. Resurrection/4
7. Covenant
6. AVPII
5. AVP
4. Prometheus
3. Alien 3
1b. 2
1a. Alien
1 and 2 are damn near equal. 1 is a Sci-Fi Horror Suspense film, whereas 2 is a Sci-Fi action flick. They each are A+ in their specific subgenres.
Yeah I constantly go back and forth on part 1 and 2 as being the best. Cool ranking
Even though I don't like AvP Requiem I still can watch it
Hope you turned the Backlight, Contrast, and the Brightness to the MAX
Yeah I can honestly watch all of these movies and get some type of enjoyment out of them
The AVP movies are NOT part of the Alien franchise.
They're not canon in the storyline but still feature the creatures so it's on the list.
My list is shorter:
1 & 2
The rest don’t count
They are definitely on a higher level than the rest
Thats my list too. Prometheus and Covenant are pretty to look at but have the content of a session of diahorrea

Alien looks beautiful. Its one of the best, most atmospheric movies ever made, no doubt. But the characters are more cardboard. Theyre more colorful and memorable than the slasher film characters in Texas Chainsaw but theyre just as wasteful. Theres no depth to them. Aside from Ripley and Ash, none of the Alien characters have character arcs.
When Hudson and Vasquez actually have better character arcs than Tom Skerritts Dallas, thats just fking sad.
Alien also suffers from what all suspense thrillers suffer from. Once you know its coming, its no longer effective.
I agree the characters in Alien aren't as fleshed out as Aliens but it makes up for it in cinematography, directing and atmosphere. I personally find it still effective after years of watching
I hate Prometheus so F'n much that I forgot how much I hated Terminator 3.
Alien films ranking 😇🙋😉😏👍😁🏆👑🥇

5. part 2.
6. part 1.
7. part 4.
8. part 3.
Now that's a hot take lol but I like it
To each his own, but there's no way 4 isn't the lowest of the Ripley movies. 3 is soooo much better than Resurrection.
I agree, I HATE the offscreen deaths of Newt and Hicks. But that's not really this movie. That's a quick throwaway lines between flicks.
Lol I have such a fun time with resurrection as a popcorn flick plus I love the look of the aliens in this one
1 Alien
2 Aliens
The rest ….
3 Prometheus
4 Covenant
5 AVP 1
6 Resurrection
7 3
8 AVP 2
Very solid list!
1 aliens great sequel
2 alien a great start to the franchise
3 prometheus a great prequel to the first 4 alien movies
4 alien resurrection a step up to the horrendous fanfiction film alien 3 I rather defend this film over alien 3
5 alien covenant, this film is okay, but it was a step-down to prometheus
6 alien 3, this is a terrible film. The cgi was horrendous they should've used more puppetry hicks and newt is dead, and Ripley has the alien Queen in her chest who wrote this
Haven't seen Avp and avpr. I'm gonna the predator movies and after that I will watch the alien vs predator movies
Ridley friggin Scott must have lost his mind, thinking that he was above everyone else and that he thought his ideas were epic, friggin NOT !!!!! Maybe he has dementia or something like that. But it's clear to me that he got himself into thinking that everything he does is just masterful and his head swelled up like a Mellon. It seems as if he believes that everything he fools himself in believing will be a friggin masterpiece, eventually absolutely, completely NOT !!!! Jackass ruined the whole friggin franchise, what ever meds he is on, he should probably stop taking them .
My ranking:
8. Alien Part 3. (1992.)
7. Alien Part 4. (1997.)
6. Alien Part 1. Original (1979.)
5. Alien Part 2. (1986.)
4. A vs. P (2004.)
3. A vs. P 2. (2007.)

1. Alien Covanent (2017.)

Covenant you put this so high but bitched about the helmets or people acting stupid in prometheus? AyyLmao even
Avp requiem, ugh...i do like the mean spiritedness of this.
Avp, ew
Yup there were a bunch of dumb character moments in Prometheus even though it's a better made movie. I still prefer covenant.
Alien 3 isn’t quite on the bottom as I do enjoy some of the atmosphere and performances mainly by Sigourney Weaver and Charles Dance, but yeah, killing off Newt, Hicks and Bishop was a punch to the face. It was depressing, but in the worst and most forced way possible.
It certainly doesn't dip as low as most franchises with this many entries. It's still watchable but I do have problems with it
